mythutil --scanvideos does not update database

[yiannividalis@…]

I moved a folder with movies within the storage group hierarchy and tried to use mythutil --scanvideos to update the database, but it wasn't updated. The movement was on the SB, and I ran mythutil both on the MB and on the SB without success. The xterm log output doesn't show anything like "removing x" and "Adding x" like in the frontend log. In one test it updated the location of only the first episode of the moved folder.

This should have been fixed by 0a57c4662b8. It makes the master backend open a new connection to the slave backend, rather than trying to connect back in through itself to perform the query. Could you check your slave backend logs to see if the master backend is trying to connect to perform the scan?

Today I performed the following test on the SB:

The folders I tested belong to the SB.
I moved a Series folder (Shaka Zulu) outside the videos storage group and ran "mythutil --scanvideos". The series was removed from the frontend.

When I moved it back where it was before and re-ran mythutil, in mythfrontend I could see the Series Title correctly, but it had created only one episode, from another series. The correct episode was S01E10 and it had the title and description of another file of another series (the first alphabetically series in the folder - BlackAdder?).

I removed the series around 11:13
I added it back around 11:15.
I have edited the log to replace the Greek messages back to English, but I've left alone the Greek folder/file names. Unknown characters are not Greek, the program tries to translate to Greek and fails.

Slave Backend log - I tried to attach it ucompressed but it was considered spam.
